Liverpool interested in Diomande amid potential transfer bid from Leipzig

Liverpool has made a €100 million offer for RB Leipzig's Yan Diomande, which has been rejected. Jamie Carragher commented that if Liverpool signs the 19-year-old, they would be investing in potential rather than an immediate impact. Diomande has shown impressive attributes, likened to former Liverpool stars Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane. Carragher noted Liverpool's need for pace on the wings after last season's struggles. Liverpool is expected to return with a higher bid, as Leipzig values Diomande at €120 million or more.
